Latest blog entries from Philadelphia teams across every league
The Philadelphia Eagles issued their second official injury report in advance of their Week 11 home game against the Detroit Lions on Sunday Night Football. This was the Eagles’ first real practice this week after previously holding a walkthrough on Wednesday. The Eagles listed one player under LIMITED PARTICIPATION: Cam Jurgens. Jurgens was also listed […]
The Philadelphia Flyers may have lost on Thursday night, but the fans won as we were introduced to several of the players’ nicknames on the broadcast. Some of the nicknames are self-explanatory, while others were improved by learning more about them. Without any further ado, here is the official ranking of the Flyers’ team nicknames from Wednesday night’s broadcast. 7. Tyson Foerster as “Forey” This is as hockey player as it gets. A typical hockey nickname just takes t...
The Detroit Lions coordinators had their typical Thursday press conferences ahead of the team’s big Week 11 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. While the big conversation for offensive coordinator John Morton was about his response to having play calls taken away from him—which is covered in a separate article here—there were plenty of other takeaways […]
The Detroit Lions (6-3) and Philadelphia Eagles (7-2) were back on the practice field on Thursday as they prepare for their showdown on “Sunday Night Football.” There are a few concerning injuries on the Lions’ side of things, including tight end Sam LaPorta missing his second straight practice and cornerback Amik Robertson being a mid-week […]

The Eagles defense played a great game on Monday night against the Packers, and defensive coordinator Vic Fangio spoke to reporters on Thursday as the team prepares for the Lions. He talked about Jaelan Phillips and his debut performance, why he’s not surprised Adoree’ Jackson is still CB2, and how Michael Carter might free up […]
This was one of the most dominant defensive performances of the Philadelphia Eagles’ 2025 season. The Green Bay Packers managed only one scoring drive, seven total points, and rarely looked comfortable. The pass rush was alive again, the coverage was sharp, and the minor schematic tweaks to fit the personnel were outstanding. The defense looked […]
For intense X’s and O’s analysis, I’m probably not the first Eagles fan you’re going to jump to for a question. When it comes to something utterly esoteric and borderline irrelevant, however, I am the person for the job. A random play against the Giants in 2002? I can see it like it was yesterday. […]
Part of the magic of baseball is that it seems to produce multiple feel-good stories every year. Perhaps the best kind of such story is the career minor leaguer who finally gets a taste of the Majors at long last. That’s not quite how it was with Otto Kemp and the Phillies this year, but […]
The Philadelphia 76ers have assigned Jared McCain to their G League affiliate, the Delaware Blue Coats. He is expected to practice and suit up for Thursday night’s game against the Greensboro Swarm, the Charlotte Hornets’ G League team. McCain has been working his way back from multiple injuries and has struggled to find his footing. […]
There is no doubt that when it comes to the Los Angeles Rams, the benchmark for fans is always, “be better than the 49ers.” When it comes to rivalries in the NFL, Rams-49ers is certainly right near the top with Cowboys-Eagles, Browns-Steelers, and Packers-Bears. These are two teams that have played 154 times and reached […]
Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links … It is time to remove the ‘misunderstood’ label from A.J. Brown – The Athletic“We play Detroit on Sunday night,” Brown said. “They play a lot of man. Pretty sure they’re gonna cloud. That’s just what comes with it. You even look back at that Denver […]
We are approaching marathon time for the Dallas Cowboys. On Monday night the team will visit the Las Vegas Raiders and six days later play again as they host the Philadelphia Eagles. There will be no time for deep breaths after that though as Dallas will be on the field four days after the Philly […]
The Oilers were in Philadelphia on Wednesday to kick off their seven-game road trip and the first half of a back-to-back set that wraps up tonight in Columbus. The boys squeezed out a 2-1 overtime win over the Flyers to get the trip started, and while it took until the extra frame to get the…
The Edmonton Oilers found a way to get a win, securing their second straight overtime winner off the stick of Jack Roslovic. It came in part thanks to a swift offside challenge from Oilers video coach Noah Segall that negated a Travis Konecny goal in the final minute of the third, but that goal didn’t…
The Detroit Lions (6-3) and Philadelphia Eagles (7-2) will square off in a Week 11 battle between two of the best teams in the NFC. In a matchup many were expecting to see in the NFC Championship game last season, this game once again has the potential for major playoff implications. While both teams are […]
The MLB offseason is ever so slowly lurching to life, and that means trade rumors are starting to rear their head. Last week, MLB Network’s Jon Morosi reported that the Los Angeles Angels are considering trading outfielders Jo Adell and/or Taylor Ward and Morosi specifically mentioned the Phillies as a possibility. The Phillies are in […]
When Sean Couturier signed his eight-year, $62 million dollar deal on Aug. 21, 2021, Chuck Fletcher was the Flyers general manager and Alain Vigneault was the head coach. That same summer, Noah Cates was entering his fourth and final year of U.S. college hockey at the University of Minnesota-Duluth, coming off a season that saw him only play 28 games and manage a meager five goals. The 2017 fifth-round Philadelphia draft pick and the then 28-year-old Couturier were miles apart financially, geo...
I think many of the most biased Phillies fans knew that Cristopher Sánchez probably wasn’t going to win the National League Cy Young award this year. That’s not to say he wasn’t deserving, as he fully emerged as one of the best pitchers in the sport and the ace of the Phillies staff in Zack […]
*Well the Flyers once again had victory snatched by the hands of defeat or whatever that saying is, dropping last night’s game in overtime after the game-tying goal was disallowed because Owen Tippett doesn’t understand how lines work. RECAP . *Perhaps you noticed The Big Thing: Tyson Foerster is back with the boys! Carl Grundstrom, thank you for your service. [ BSH ] *Apparently, before the game, Leon Draisaitl gave Matvei Michkov some sage advice. That’s nice! [ Inquirer ] *Ge...
After what would have been a game-winning goal from Travis Konecny was called back for offsides with 23 seconds remaining, the Oilers stole an overtime win in Philadelphia by a score of 2-1. While the Oilers dominated for large stretches of the game, the Flyers nearly came away with an impressive win over the back-to-back Western Conference champs, but had to settle for a point on Wednesday night. The basics First period: 19:05 – Evan Bouchard (Connor McDavid, Matthew Savoie) ...
That was one of the weirder wins we’ll see this season. On Wednesday evening, the Edmonton Oilers began a seven-game road trip, with their first stop coming in the Brotherly Love to face the Philadelphia Flyers. For the second consecutive game, the Oilers won the game courtesy of Jack Roslovic. Let’s take a look at…
Yoshinobu Yamamoto was a top-three candidate for the 2025 NL Cy Young award, but it was Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes that took home the award unanimously. Yamamoto finished in third place, receiving zero first or second place votes as Philadelphia Phillies southpaw Cristopher Sánchez finished as the unanimous runner-up. The record didn’t look too […]
The Philadelphia Eagles issued their first official injury report in advance of their Week 11 home game against the Detroit Lions on Sunday Night Football. The Eagles listed four players under LIMITED PARTICIPATION: Lane Johnson, Cam Jurgens, Landon Dickerson, and Tyler Steen. On one hand, not ideal to see that four of the five offensive […]
This was a disappointing offensive performance, especially coming off a bye week. This was a conservative, predictable outing that lacked any rhythm, aggression, and creativity. The passing attack started with some promise but faded into the same frustrating patterns that have haunted this team all year. I found this a tough watch. Offense The run […]
